The concept of education of the Animal Welfare Management programme studies falls within thefield of agricultural sciences in the discipline of animal science and fisheries. The studies are general academic type and are conducted in full-time in English. Lectures and auditorium exercises may be delivered using distance learning methods and techniques. This is due, among other things, to the fact that part of the teaching hours of individual modules will be carried out by specialists – practitioners – representatives of various socio-economic environments.
The main strategic goals of University include: ‘the systematic improvement of the quality and efficiency of education through the concentration of research and implementation potential, the training of personnel, the development and expansion of the educational offer in relation to the needs of the economy and administration, the development of cooperation with foreign centres’. The opening of the Animal Welfare Management first-cycle programme at the University of Life Sciences in Lublin will make possible to fill the gap in the offer of foreign universities, as no university in Eastern Europe has so far offered such a study programme.
